Forget the numerators, focus on the denominators for now. 3 an 4 are both multiples of 12, so we can multiply \frac{2}{3} by 4 and \frac{3}{4} by 3 to make all the fractions out of 12. This should make it easier to understand which one is the smallest / biggest. 

\frac{2}{3} × 4 = <span>\frac{8}{12} 
</span>
\frac{3}{4} × 3 = <span>\frac{9}{12} 
</span>
You leave <span>\frac{7}{12} as it is because it's already out of 12.

Now you can see that obviously, </span>\frac{3}{4} is the largest fraction, as 9 is the biggest when it's out of 12. \frac{2}{3} is the second largest as it's 8 out of 12, which is smaller than 9 but bigger than 7. Obviously, the last is one is <span>\frac{7}{12}.

So the order is:

</span>\frac{3}{4}, \frac{2}{3}, <span>\frac{7}{12}.</span>

For this question you should know that:
2/3 = 8/12 
and 
3/4 = 9/12 
so now you can say:
7/12 < 8/12 < 9/12 
so: 
7/12 < 2/3 < 3/4 :)))
i hope this is helpful
have a nice day

PLEASE HELP It's for 10pts
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

9x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a simple problem, to find the perimeter, add a+b+c. In this case, it's with binomials, but it follows the same idea.

(2x+2)+(3x+1)+(4x-1)

2x+2+3x+1+4x-1

Combine like terms.

2x+3x+4x=9x

2+1-1=2

Left with 9x+2 as your perimeter binomial.
